The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 253 Letting Marcus Take Gabriel Away

Natalie lifted her gaze toward Marcus.

The two of them arrived at the Walker residence one after the other, but she had asked the gatekeeper to hold him at the entrance and sent him a message explaining the situation.

Once she found out who was behind it, she immediately had the private security invite Marcus inside.

Marcus cooperated fully with her and had no objection to her arrangements.

The moment he stepped in, Gabriel suddenly panicked. He desperately scooted toward Natalie's feet, but the private security guards pinned him down.

"Ms. Natalie, I didn't do it. I really didn't!"

Gabriel kept begging for mercy. "You can't just blame me for making Flash go wild based on a single surveillance video!

"There are so many people who feed the horses, but you didn't look into any of them. You only suspected me. Is it because Cindy is my aunt? Are you trying to get rid of me just because we're related?"

"Gabriel, I'll give you one more chance," Natalie said coldly, eyes fixed on him. "Tell me the truth. Did you do this on your own, or did someone instruct you?"

"I didn't do it, and nobody told me to do anything. Ms. Natalie, please don't accuse me unfairly."

"In that case, Mr. Holden, you can take him away." Natalie stood and swept her gaze over all the helpers in the room. "I'm the real daughter of this family, and there's no doubt about that. If any of you feel unhappy about my return, you can leave right now."

"Ms. Natalie, we're not unhappy at all. We're actually thrilled you're back," one of the helpers said bravely. We're just people trying to make a living, and we're very grateful to Mr. and Mrs. Walker for giving us this job."

"There's no way we'd harbor any resentment toward you, Ms. Natalie."

"If we've done anything wrong, please let us know. We'll fix it."

"That's right. We're more than happy you've come home."

"Please be assured, Ms. Natalie. We'd never act like Cindy or Gabriel. We know
